Are age and sex effects on sleep slow waves only a matter of EEG amplitude ?
(Oxford University Press, 2020-09-15)
Aging is associated with reduced slow wave (SW) density (number SW/min in nonrapid-eye movement sleep) and amplitude.
It has been proposed that an age-related decrease in SW density may be due to a reduction in ...
Diffusion mechanism of bound Schottky defect in magnesium oxide
(American Physical Society, 2021-03-25)
In simple ionic crystals, intrinsic point defects must satisfy electrical neutrality and exist as Schottky defects.
In magnesium oxide (MgO), a Schottky defect is then a combination of anionic and cationic vacancies. ...
Using AB designs with nonoverlap effect size measures to support clinical decision-making : a Monte Carlo validation
(SAGE, 2019-07-13)
Single-case experimental designs often require extended baselines or the withdrawal of treatment, which may not be feasible or ethical in some practical settings. The quasi-experimental AB design is a potential alternative, ...
The clinical utility of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in reducing the risks of transitioning from acute to chronic pain in traumatically injured patients
(Elsevier, 2017-07-08)
Pain is a multifaceted condition and a major ongoing challenge for healthcare professionals having to treat patients in whom pain put them at risk of developing other conditions. Significant efforts have been invested in ...
Molecular-level photo-orientation insights into macroscopic photo-induced motion in azobenzene-containing polymer complexes
(American Chemical Society, 2021-07-13)
As part of continuing efforts to deepen the understanding of photo-induced mass transport in azo-containing polymers, we compared the diffraction efficiency (DE) during surface-relief grating (SRG) inscription, photo-induced ...
Machine learning to support visual inspection of data : a clinical application
(SAGE, 2021-08-12)
Practitioners in pediatric feeding programs often rely on single-case experimental designs and visual inspection to make treatment decisions (e.g., whether to change or keep a treatment in place). However, researchers have ...
Are older people living alone socially isolated? : a qualitative study of their experiences
(Routledge, 2022-01-05)
This article discusses the experiences of social isolation among older people living alone. The current state of knowledge suggests that they are at a higher risk of social isolation which, in turn, can compromise their ...
Longitudinal associations between delinquency, depression and anxiety symptoms in adolescence : testing the moderating effect of sex and family socioeconomic status
(Elsevier, 2018-09-25)
Purpose
To examine the cross-lagged associations between delinquency (nonviolent and violent), depression and anxiety symptoms in adolescence and to test the moderating effect of sex and family socioeconomic status ...
Brief report : mobile technology to support parents in reducing stereotypy
(Springer, 2020-09-30)
Although behavioral interventions have been known to efectively reduce stereotypy in children with ASD, these types of
interventions are not accessible to all families. In response to this issue, we evaluated the efects ...
Imposing equilibrium restrictions in the estimation of dynamic discrete games
(Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2019-09)
Imposing equilibrium restrictions provides substantial gains in the estimation of dynamic discrete games. Estimation algorithms imposing these restrictions – MPEC, NFXP, NPL, and variations – have different merits and ...
